[PATCH] Btrfs-progs: add support for mixed data+metadata block groups V3
So alot of crazy people (I''m looking at you Meego) want to use btrfs on
phones
and such with small devices. Unfortunately the way we split out metadata/data
chunks it makes space usage inefficient for volumes that are smaller than
1gigabyte. So add a -M option for mixing metadata+data, and default to this
mixed mode if the filesystem is less than or equal to 1 gigabyte. I''ve
tested
this with xfstests on a 100mb filesystem and everything is a-ok.
Signed-off-by: Josef Bacik <josef@redhat.com>
---
V2->V3: Add an incompat flag since the kernel will panic with mixed block
groups
unless its had a few key fixes.
V1->V2: My original patch was screwing up if you specified the data or
metadata
profile. This update fixes that problem.

The reason I''m asking this is that having two separate modes implies having more codepaths in the kernel, which naturally adds complexity to the filesystem and also more code to test, two things that should be avoided, if possible. I''d love if you could add a small explanation to your patch description (or a comment in the code) about why it is useful to keep the default mode of allocation, instead of simply droping it and doing mixed allocation in all cases.

Re: [PATCH] Btrfs-progs: add support for mixed data+metadata block groups V3
My apologies if I missed it, but this looks like the most recent version of this patch ([PATCH] Btrfs-progs: add support for mixed data+metadata block groups V3), and this version needs updating to take into account that BTRFS_FEATURE_INCOMPAT_SPACE_CACHE is no longer needed. The kernel btrfs code expects: #define BTRFS_FEATURE_INCOMPAT_MIXED_GROUPS (1ULL << 2) But this version of the patch gives: #define BTRFS_FEATURE_INCOMPAT_MIXED_GROUPS (1ULL << 3) with (1ULL << 2) being occupied by the space_cache incompat flag. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-btrfs" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
